The Netflix series is an adaptation of Elin Hilderbrand’s eponymous book, which centers around a murder mystery connected to the wealthy Winbury family in Nantucket. Set to Franki Valli’s Can’t Take My Eyes Off of You, the trailer starts with Kidman and Schrieber’s characters being the happily married couple of 29 years. 

When their son Benji Winbury (Billy Howle) decides to marry Amelia Sacks (Eve Hewson), the mother takes on wedding responsibilities in full swing! But what seems like a perfect day gets spoiled when a dead body surfaces mysteriously—putting the entire family under police radar.

At one point in the trailer, Dakota Fanning, who plays Benji’s sister, shares a family insight with Amelia: “The key to this family is just stay on the periphery. Where it’s safe.” This statement signifies that the family has problems and secrets beneath the pretentious and happy surface.
